Dayanna Jimenez

Undergraduate student in Civil and Environmental Engineering, currently enrolled in a Postgraduate Specialization in Water Resources Engineering. Research experience in hydrological and hydraulic modelling, GIS and remote sensing, slope stability, and river geomorphology. Coordinator of the HidroInnovación Research Group with international presentations (IAHR, Latin American Congress of Hydraulics).

• Study and characterization of C and CN for Cauca, Colombia: Correlation and implementation
  Applied statistical correlation methods and GIS tools to process land cover, soil, and rainfall data for hydrological modelling.
• Update of IDF curves for the Department of Cauca in a web visualization tool
  Processed rainfall time series with frequency analysis and statistical distribution fitting, integrated into an interactive web tool.
• Geomorphological and hydrodynamic characterization of the quebrada San Andrés debris flow occurred the 01/11/2017: Implementation to resilient bridge design
  Applied HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS 2D modelling with geomorphological mapping and field data analysis to support resilient bridge design.
• A multi-method approach to bridge resilience in Paéz River: Combining remote sensing and hydrodynamic modeling of historical debris flow events in glacial–volcanic environments
  Used remote sensing and hydrodynamic modelling of historical debris flows to propose resilient bridge design criteria.
